surKHiyan KHun mein Dubi hain sab aKHbaron ki

ho jae jahan sham wahin un ka basera

raKHt-e-safar jo pas hamare na tha to kya

jaanib-e-kucha-o-bazar na dekha jae

ghar mein raha tha kaun ki ruKHsat kare hamein

ye apne dil ki lagi ko bujhane aate hain

raste shahr ke sab band hue hain tum par

kuchh yun lagta hai tere sath hi guzra wo bhi

bas yunhi ham-sari-e-ahl-e-jahan mumkin hai

kitni diwaren uThi hain ek ghar ke darmiyan

muddaton baad hum kisi se mile

un se ummid-e-mulaqat ke baad ai maKHmur

maslahat ke hazar parde hain

bujhti aankhon mein sulagte hue ehsas ki lau

ab aa gae ho to Thahro KHaraba-e-dil mein
